Jul: New Directions in Information Literacy: Growing Our Teaching Practices (Library Juice Academy)


Dates: July 7th through August 15th, 2014
Credits: 2.25 CEUs
Price: $250

In recent years instruction has become an increasingly significant component of almost all library positions related to public services, and yet most new librarians have limited opportunities to gain teaching experience and knowledge of effective pedagogy. The need for more educational opportunities related to library instruction is evident in the undeniable changes occurring now in library instruction and in librarians’ understandings of the concept “information literacy.” (This evolution is particularly apparent, for example, in the ACRL’s new framework for information literacy and the conversations surrounding it.)
